Blade

Speaking with Variety, screenwriter David Goyer revealed he recently reached out to Marvel asking if the company needs “help” with its troubled Blade movie, but was told “we think we’ve cracked it.”

I had my agent call Marvel and say, ‘Do you guys need any help?’ And they said, ‘We love you, but we think we’ve cracked it now, and we’re in a good place.’ And then the latest thing happened. And so no, they haven’t contacted me.

Meanwhile, Mahershala Ali spoke to The Hollywood Reporter on the red carpet of Jurassic World Rebirth, telling them he’s taking Blade‘s progress “a day at a time.”

We have part two written, yes, and we’re just waiting for the funding to come through. We have to make some script modifications to make it perfect, but the studio that wants to make it is already there.
